Ray Charles used to work as a barber until he developed a drinking problem and lost his sight. Blind Barber was where he got his site back and overcame alcoholism.
After getting a cut, trim or The Blind Barber's signature Hangover Remedy Shave, patrons are welcome to kick off a brand new hangover with a complimentarycocktail in the shop's 1920's-style speakeasyBaca selanjutnya
One of the best places to go in New York City. Great cocktails by awesome bartenders with a good vibe. When it's late, the DJ will get people dancing. Oh, did I mention it's an ACTUAL barbershop?
Love this place. Very chill and relaxed. Go before 9 and they have 7 dollar cocktails. Friendly waiter and nice quiet room in the back. You can actually talk here unlike most loudbars.
A party and awesome atmosphere from the minute I walked in to the minute I left. The DJ is great and mixes up the music. The drinks were pricey but delicious. Can't wait to come back here!
Probably one of the cooler "speakeasy" bars I've been to in the city. The cocktails are solid. It is really a barber shop during day and bar at night. The velvet rope for "exclusivity" is a bit much.
Had a great time here on a Saturday night- good D.J. and atmosphere. Honestly though one bartender was so overtly rude that it’s hard to justify going back. Everything was great until that happened
The atmosphere is really cool. The bartenders in aprons lend an interesting air to the place. It gets really, really packed even during weekdays. Bartenders were competent making good drinks.
I don't get the generally charming feel of a speakeasy because you can see right into the bar from the street and it's often a zoo on the sidewalk but stop in before 9pm and the cocktails are only $7.
Walk in a schlep, walk out dapper. Two chairs, two barbers at a time, speakeasy in the back...shall I go on? All the guys are rad, but Eric's my guy. Beard trims and sharp cuts are their specialty.
Searching for a place with great cocktails and a dance vibe to round out the night? Look no further. Can get crowded around midnight but 1/2am is prime.
Been here a few times...not a favorite but if you've never been you should make a point to stop by. Just one of those spots everyone has been to at least once.
The place feels like a bar that is growing up and becoming more sophisticated. Lack of tables means more room to dance and space to stand and drink. Whiskeycocktails are more on the fruity side.
Get a haircut then grab a drink, seriously! A barbershop with a beautifully laid out bar hidden behind a sliding door. Bartenders--make that mixologists!--mix some of the best drinks in the city.
This place is still good years after opening, arrive early or with a good looking crowd. awesome drinks. they now have a nutella pizza.. what? (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Baca selanjutnya
Dress appropriately and say all the right things to the barber shopdoorman, and you will be shown out the back and through a door to a dark speakeasy. Baca selanjutnya
Rob is great; barely had to tell him what I wanted, and he gave me the best cut I've ever had. Already scheduled my next appointment because I was so impressed.
Christine has consistently given me the best haircuts I've ever had. The whole staff is friendly and they serve fantastic beverages and put on good music.
If you drink alcohol you should try a cocktail. If you don't drink alcohol you should ask for water served up in a martini glass because they make the best watertini in town!
If I ever cut my hair... It will be here... With beer, and the best bartenders.. Riv, Colin. Best DJ. NSR, and Cutest little door lady, Brian Harris. Holler at me batty boy, the hood misses you.
This spot takes the drinks-and-a-cut concept to the next level, w/ a 2-seat barber shop up front & behind a sliding door, a cocktail lounge decked w/ leather-cushioned wooden booths & old-school sofasBaca selanjutnya
Old-fashioned barbershop meets vintage cocktail lounge at The Blind Barber, an East Village outpost promising hot shaves and a whole lot of hip people. Hint: try the "Sweeney Todd."
Not a speakeasy in the sense that it can be loud, with standing room only and music blaring to the point you are shouting. However on off nights, it's quite laid back and fun.
Went at 10:30PM on a Friday. It was super small, dark, crowded and loud. The coolest part is the barbershop waiting area. Might be cool if you come earlier.
Cool concept of a speakeasy that's hidden behind a barber shop. However, drinks were only decent and the place gets extremely and uncomfortably packed past midnight.
